After Lan Yao reported all those connected to the Lan, Qian, and Xu families, she watched as they were arrested by the Red Revolutionary Committee.
The jade Pixiu asked with some surprise, "Master, aren't you going to wait until they're demoted before leaving? Why are you leaving so quickly this time?"
Lan Yao warned, "The key figures from both the Lan and Xu families have run away this time, and Lan Jiaojiao has also run away."
The two families fled in the same direction, heading towards Shenzhen. According to the memories she had previously gathered from Old Man Lan, the Lan family still had a large sum of money hidden in Shenzhen.
If she hadn't been reborn, according to Lan Yao's previous plan, she was also prepared to make a trip to Shenzhen.
There's no reason to let those companies' products go to outsiders at a low price.
Therefore, there is no need to waste time on unnecessary people.
The jade Pixiu let out an "oh," and suddenly realized, "My master is indeed intelligent, decisive, wise, and mighty."
Lan Yao was too lazy to pay attention to its half-hearted flattery. Before leaving, she went to the neighborhood office and used her mental power to get them to write her a few more letters of introduction.
He then changed his identity several times and went to the black market, state-run buildings, state-run restaurants and other places to purchase supplies.
Lan Yao was busy until late at night before reluctantly boarding the train with her hard-seat ticket.
Lan Yao hadn't ridden a train in a long time, and this was her first time riding a train from this era, so she was still quite curious.
However, this novelty quickly disappeared after she saw that her seat was taken. Lan Yao looked at the old lady sitting in her seat with a blank expression: "Auntie, this is my seat, please move it."
She had heard before that you could ride any train at this time of year, and she thought it was a lie, but it turned out to be true.
The elderly woman, holding her grandson, heard this and saw a thin, dark-skinned young man standing next to her. She smiled and asked, "Young man, are you talking to me?"
"Otherwise what? Do you think I can talk to thin air?" Lan Yao said calmly.
"Young man, can't you speak properly? How can you have no manners at all? I am your elder, is this how your family taught you to speak to your elders?" The old woman said with displeasure.
"Want to be my elder? The grass on my elders' graves is already several meters high. How about I send you down there? After the grass grows tall, you can be my elder."
"You little brat, how dare you curse me?"
"Watch your words, you're cursing yourself. So, stop talking nonsense, move aside, this is my seat," Lan Yao said coldly.
"You think it's your seat just because you say so? Are you being unreasonable? I sat down here first..."
Before the old woman could finish speaking, Lan Yao unceremoniously grabbed the old woman and her grandson and dragged them to the side of the aisle. She plopped down and smiled at the old woman, saying, "This seat is mine now."
The old woman froze for a moment, then let out a howl and pounced on Lan Yao: "You motherless bastard, how dare you steal the spot I worked so hard to get! I'm going to scratch your face to pieces today!"
Lan Yao clicked her tongue lightly, grasped the old woman's outstretched hands, and felt a sharp pain shooting through her left eye. She endured the pain with willpower, giving the old woman a sinister smile: "Auntie, I have a bad temper. While I'm still reasonable, you'd better shut up. Otherwise..."
Her gaze fell on the grandson next to the old woman, and she said with a smile, "I'll just throw him out."
The old woman was startled and hugged her grandson tightly, exclaiming in panic, "What's wrong with you? Are you sick?"
Lan Yao tilted her head and smiled, "Oh dear, how did you know, Auntie? I really am sick, mentally ill. It wouldn't be illegal to kill you!"
Her drawn-out "oh" startled the old woman, who hugged her grandson even tighter: "You, you, you, you're ruthless."
The old woman, carrying her grandson and dragging her luggage, hurried away, afraid that if she was even a step too late, Lan Yao would abandon her grandson.
The people around Lan Yao looked at her with a hint of fear and apprehension, but Lan Yao didn't care at all. She stuffed her disguised luggage under the seat, crossed her arms, leaned back in the seat, and closed her eyes to rest.
It takes about two or three days to get from Shanghai to Shenzhen. Trains are generally slow these days.
So, Lan Yao planned to ask the train conductor if she could upgrade to a hard sleeper after one or two stops, as a soft sleeper was unlikely, as she had heard that only people with special connections could get one.
The two men and one woman sitting opposite her couldn't help but complain, "Wasn't that guy a bit too domineering? It's not easy for that old lady to take care of her grandson, what's wrong with letting her sit for a while?"
The petite, fair-skinned girl with two braids couldn't help but roll her eyes upon hearing this: "You're quite generous with other people's money. That old lady was so pitiful just now, why didn't you offer her your seat?"
"Lin Jingjing, what's wrong with you? Why are you taking the side of outsiders?" the man said, displeased.
Lin Jingjing chuckled twice: "Wang Aiguo, which of your words made you think I was siding with outsiders? I was clearly speaking according to your conscience. You're wronging an innocent person?"
Wang Aiguo's face turned red with anger. He said angrily, "Lin Jingjing, you didn't fall for that lunatic, did you? He's dark and skinny, he doesn't look good at all."
Lin Jingjing was so angry that her face turned red. She pointed at Wang Aiguo and cursed, "Wang Aiguo, you heartless little bastard, you gossipy scumbag, how dare you ruin my reputation! I'll cripple you today!"
In this day and age, a girl's reputation is so important. For a boy to speak so recklessly, it shows how foul his mouth is.
Lan Yao opened her eyes, stopped Lin Jingjing from rushing towards Wang Aiguo, and smiled gently at her: "Comrade, this matter seems to have something to do with me. How can I let such a kind lady like you stand up for me! My conscience would hurt if I did that."
Lin Jingjing was stunned at first. When she met Lan Yao's bright black eyes, her face suddenly turned red for some reason, and she stammered, "This, what does this have to do with you, comrade? To put it bluntly, it's all our fault."
Lan Yao smiled gently at her, then her gaze suddenly sharpened as she looked at Wang Aiguo, and she said coldly, "Apologize to this female comrade."
Wang Aiguo was initially embarrassed, then somewhat indignant: "Why should I apologize? Mind your own business. Or are you really..."
Lan Yao raised her hand and slapped him, saying slowly and deliberately, "With such a foul mouth, won't a slap make you wake up?"
Wang Aiguo's eyes widened in disbelief: "You dare to hit me? You actually dare to hit me."
She immediately stood up, ready to fight Lan Yao. Lin Jingjing was startled and cried out in Lan Yao's direction, "Be careful!"
Lan Yao was faster than him. As Wang Aiguo lunged at her, she stood up and instantly pinned him to the ground.
Wang Aiguo screamed in agony: "Ouch, ouch, ouch! You lunatic..."
At this moment, the train police officer who had been summoned came over and asked with an unfriendly expression, "What happened?"
